Faith in Science Fiction and Fantasy

18 Days of Tesseracts: The ALL-OVER the Net Event

Join us as we celebrate the Tesseracts anthologies of the past, present and the future.

The Wrestling With Gods (Tesseracts 18) blogwill be hosting 18 different guestblogs by the authors of stories that deal with faith that have appeared in the Tesseracts series. Come every day to read a new post in a discussion of Faith in Scifi and fantasy with leanings towards craft. You might be reading craft-leaning blogposts on how an author tackled faith elements in their writing, or how their story reflects other stories/ novels that have had a similar faith element and how they all tackled that element–tying their story into the larger longer conversation scifi and fantasy is having about spiritual issues. You might also find tips on how YOU might better incorporate spiritual elements into your writing using a story from Tesseracts–or several– as an example(s).

Each blogpost will tie a Tesseracts story in with the larger conversation that scifi and fantasy has been having with faith, and hopefully will give you, our readers, an insight on craft, and, of course, a way to celebrate the stories and poems in the Wrestling with Gods: Tesseracts 18 anthology.

We will also be tying each of our author’s guest blogposts in with their interview on Corey Redekop‘s blog where he interviews the different authors about their stories–making our blogs complement the ones on his site, we hope, in a cool way.
